It is just convenient to cable tie the CAT6 cable onto the SWA. Does anyone think I would get significant signal noise? I have seen wads of cat5 normal lashed over suspended ceilings and fluors and never heard of anyone complaining about signal loss and that is over hundrends of units collectively. Not really interested in the separation thing as it is at home for my garage cctv.
 
over short runs I wouldnt see an issue, not even needing swa cat5/6.. you can get outdoor rated ethernet cables which clipped to the swa will be fine...
used to do it a lot pre ev-ultra for ev chargers with the etherent and grid ct all in the single cat5/6 as you have spair pairs inside.
